The speed of the game will not be a factor for McCain. He didn't just play middle school ball. He played in 74 games with me this year since Feb. against some of the best teams. He will be ready for the speed of the game.

But you can't compare playing against 14 yr old on the AAU circuit to play against 17 an 18 yr old that always a big Difference especially the style Silsbee play of a non stop running  :o got dizzy thinking bout them running
[/quote]

Yes you can... The teams in this district this year, absolutely. I'm not sure if you understand AAU basketball or not, but we played against teams that would finish top three in this district as a 14U team. What do you think AAU basketball consist of? Running running running... Plus most 14U teams are actually 15 because they were held back or failed. If your telling me that the top 14 and 15 year old teams can not be compared to HJ, WOS, HF, Silsbee, Buna, OF, BC... Your out your mind.
[/quote]


So you are saying that some of the aau 14u teams would beat either HJ, Silsbee or WO-S this season, or two of three, or all three? I am not buying that and yes, I have seen aau games.

I believe the experience of the players and the coaching on the sidelines would be too much for those 14u teams. I'd be willing to bet all three of those coaches (Sigler, Sutherland, Wilkes) would have a definite advantage over the opposing aau coach. ;)

You giving aau too much credit in this situation.

McCain will definitely be a varsity player this year and will get plenty of playing time (may even start a few games while the football players are still in playoffs), but don't see him being a regular starter this year. Next year and beyond, he will be the man.
[/quote]

For a fact there a few teams that would beat Silsbee, HJ, and WOS... Especially this year. You haven't seen the teams play that I'm talking about. I understand your point... Hell, 2 years ago I would laugh at anyone who said that. But now that I've witnessed it 1st hand, I'm telling you, it would happen.

Most ridiculous, delusional series of posts I've seen in a long time.  Why you ripping Silsbee bradyb? Saying they treating players like pieces of meat and would get beat by 14U teams wouldn't be something I would think an alum would be doing.


[/quote]

I'm not talking down on Silsbee. That's in general around here... So many HS coaches use the kids instead of get them prepared for college. And about the 14U teams beating Silsbee, I'm not taking anything away from Silsbee... But I'm honest... There are 14U teams that would compete in our district... It's irrevelant but it's true.

Is there any chance that you havent been "at this" long enough to honestly know the differences between Silsbee/HJ/WOS compared to 14 year old AAU teams?

They didn't have AAU teams back in the day.  I've heard of AAU teams.  I know they play during the off season, during the summer.  I've never seen an AAU team play.  Once the regular high school season is over, and the various state champions are selected, I drop this topic til the next season.  I may make a comment of two here or there, but for the most part I'm done.
Having said all that I didn't know 14U meant 14 year old aau.

I would imagine as follows

Reed
Elam
Jackson
McCain

Trey Grubbs will start over McCain !!! Grubbs is the truth

Is Trey Grubbs, related to, or maybe the son of Elton Grubbs?

I see Reed, Elam , Jackson as definite starters with Hardaway, McCain, Thomas, Grubbs, and Wallace all seeing fairly equal time on the court. That is a pretty solid group. As usual, they will make up for their size with speed.  Once the 6'9" transfer from the Ukraine arrives they will be unstoppable.  ;D

One way to find out is ask Elton the next time I see him.  I've been knowing him since kindergarten, or was it the first grade at Frank Robinson?  His big bro. Perry got outta dodge (Silsbee) long time ago. Left for Cali, but I digress.

What is "at this" ? I talked to 2 varsity head coaches a a Lamar coach on this topic and they agreed 100% with my statement. It's stupid to continue to try to argue with me on this subject. I know a lot of y'all on here like to think that y'all know so much about sports, and that's fine. But until you have watched these teams play, you do not have a valid argument. So just drop the subject. If you take the 8 best 8th graders from Houston area and play every team in this district, they will finish in the top 3. That's what AAU is, putting the best players from the area together.

Is it the same Lamar coach who believed Hondo Webb would be a real asset for the Cardinals?  "At this" means, obviously, that you may be a little young and short on experience to "declare" who would win hypothetical games.  I have talked with an individual who has seen 100 games for every one you have ever seen or played in ( and he has a close relative who is on one of the top AAU teams in the area) and he stated that the teams you mentioned might beat Bridge City, but not WOS, Silsbee, or HJ)

Seriously, I think Silsbee will go to the same round as last year. Third and home. Yates will dominate 3A Region 3 again this year.
[/quote]

Perhaps.  I'm sure Yates and Coach Wise are undaunted by losing the championship to Dallas what'sitname.  I forgot the team's name.  As I've stated before the Tigers need a half court game that features accurate outside shooting.
